I just today found your blog. I have been reading and reading and just loving it. Its interesting, informative and an excellent guide for learning. I even told a few friends about it. I've spent a lot of time learning pioneer skills and ways of surviving in hard times. Now my husband and I are starting a homestead from scratch. I just recently started my blog to document our journey (only two post so far). Anyways, you keep blogging and I'll sure keep reading it. Anna

About Me

This blog has turned into “Living Along the Creek” for my life here now includes much more than just raising healthy vegetables and fruits. I’m learning to cure and preserve meats (from bacon and ham to salumi) and to make many kinds of cheese to round out my homegrown diet.
I have worn many hats in my lifetime; I’ve been a passive solar home-builder, a marketing executive, a garden writer, a medical researcher, renovated houses, raised Arabian horses, and worked in open-heart surgery. I'm interested in far too many things to do a single-topic blog!
My interests include Self-sufficiency; Sustainability; High Brix / Nutrient Dense Foods; growing more of what I eat, eating (and preserving) what I grow. Learning what's good for my body/health, and what isn't.
I'm a Seeker hoping to become a Wise Woman someday.
